Enhancements

Improved Visibility Of Shared Vaults​

To make it easier to find vaults that are shared with other devices, the "Show Storage Vaults in use by other devices" option has been moved directly under the Storage Vault selector.

This makes it significantly easier to backup to or restore from a Storage Vault that is owned by other devices in the same user account.

VMware Protected Items configured using Changed Block Tracking can now fallback to a full backup​

VMware Protected Items that have been configured to use the Latest VM state (Changed Block Tracking) mode will now fallback to performing a full VM backup when Magnus Box detects that more than 50% of the disk has changed. This speeds up the backup peformance when large parts of the VM has been modified.
